Problem/Motivation

Avoid ?email=&otp= on GET download (logs, Referer, history). Prefer POST body or short-lived exchange cookie after code entry.

GitHub: #43.

Proposed resolution

Redeem path that does not require long-lived secrets in the query string; document deprecation if breaking.

Remaining tasks

  • Implementation + tests + docs
  • Dual-venue close on ship
